And here it starts! Stimulus II



"If we don't pass my stimulus plan right now, unemployment could go above 8%"

Well Mr. President, we passed that threshold a year ago. And it's still going up.

And now, you just happen to have the magic Elixer for the economy!!!!!

Wow!! Why didn't you bring it out and hawk it earlier???? Oh yeah, had to work on ObamaCare. Oh yeah, had to work on financial reform so no more downturns?

So this is the silver bullet, right? Read it all here.

Just one little question Mr. President? What democrat in congress up for re-election is going to vote for all this new deficit spending?

This is not going to pass, so why all this campaigning????

Is this just an attempt to fire up the languid looney left base? Must be, because this is going nowhere.

"Hail Mary Pass Time": get your bullshit filter out!



In case you have not noticed, today is September 6, Labor Day. For many of us that is the last day of a nice, long 3 day weekend.

For the political ruling class it is the first day of the race toward the November elections. And despite all the deniles, the Democrats are in deep, deep do-do.

So, get ready, the Dem's in general and Lord Obama in particular are going to start rolling out a blizzard of proposals to both dazzle and confuse the electorate. Why confuse?

Well, they can't run on their miserable record, they can't debate real ideas because their ideology is both flawed and rejected by the electorate, so they have to use the oldest political trick in the playbook: go buy the votes.

From the NYT: Economy options dwindle



According to the NYT; "THE American economy is once again tilting toward danger. Despite an aggressive regimen of treatments from the conventional to the exotic — more than $800 billion in federal spending, and trillions of dollars worth of credit from the Federal Reserve — fears of a second recession are growing, along with worries that the country may face several more years of lean prospects."

Read it all here.

And they are right: the current Obama administration has tried everything THEY know how to do!!!!!!!

But folks we have been here before: it was called Jimmy Carter!

In 1979 we had high inflation, no growth, no jobs, high interest rates, and a demoralized country that was being told from the White House that "this may be as good as it gets".

Ronald Reagen came to office, let a wrenching economic correction take its course to wring out the inflation monster and then slashed marginal tax rates which unleashed the largest economic expansion in modern history. Oh, and by the way, he defeated the Soviet empire in his spare time!

But do not dispare......the current crowd is not out of ideas yet! They are going to let the Bush tax cuts expire at the end of the year. They still want ObamaCare to go forward, they still want Cap & Trade, and don't forget their debt commission that will no doubt call for a National VAT tax. Won't all those things do such great good for our economy??????

If we do not start major surgery this November, a couple years down the road we may look back at 2010 as a time of unparalleled prosperity!

Wouldn't that be a pathetic thing!

"It's Fiscal Child Abuse!!!"

Lies, Lies, and Damnable Lies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Part II



House Democrats this week will consider another cut to the Food Stamps program to fund Michelle "Antionette" Obama's “Let’s Move” initative.

Why is Food Stamps taking the cut? Here is the shocker of an answer:

Food stamps have made multiple appearances on the fiscal chopping block because Democrats have few other places to turn to offset the cost of legislation. Read it all here.

So let's see if we have this straight. In a $3.5 trillion Federal Government budget, the only place to find some spare cash is in the Food Stamps budget?

This is a lie. It is cover for something else. It is deception of the worst kind and the typical government use of the weakest to jam home the case for more revenues.

Shameful and dispicable aren't strong enough terms. Maybe EVIL is appropriate.

When Cornered: Blame Bush!



Embattled Rep. Maxine Waters on Friday blamed the Bush administration for her ethics problems -- saying she had to intervene with the Treasury Department on behalf of minority-owned banks seeking federal bailout funds -- including one tied to her husband -- because the Treasury Department wouldn't schedule its own appointments.

The California Democrat said in a Capitol Hill news conference
-- an event rarely held during a congressional recess -- that she reached out to then-Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson in late 2008 when his department failed to respond to the National Bank Association's request for a meeting.

But the House ethics committee, which is investigating Waters for allegedly improperly using her position for personal gain, says in its report of charges that when the meeting was held, the officers of only one bank came -- OneUnited.

That's a problem for Waters since her husband, Sidney Williams, served as a member of OneUnited's board of directors from January 2004 until April 2008, and was a stockholder in the bank.

OOOOps! The truth hurts! But nevermind,,,,,,,BLAME BUSH!

"A Tidal Wave is Coming....." Pat Cadell



Former Carter pollster Pat Cadell sees it coming; look here.

He calls the voter's mindset, "pre-revolutionary".

I think he misses the point a little: he better pray there is a pre-revolution in November. The reason is that two things COULD spark a REAL revolution in this country otherwise:

1. People find their wealth has been stolen by the government

2. People find out that their votes no longer count; they have no voice

If in November they find out they have no voice, they may not wait for #1 to hit home.

GM makes political donations----why you should care



GM, aka Government Motors, is owned by you and me. We have 60% of the tab. So, are you in favor of your company making political donations to the Black Caucus? With your money? That is exactly what they are doing, read it all here.

The Federal takeover of GM was nasty; bondholders, stockholders got screwed. The Unions ended up with equity to protect their rich pensions, and we got stuck with the bill. And now this politically controlled entity is making political donations to favored groups who helped grease the skids for this corrupt takeover.

This is political self-dealing and corruption of the highest order.

Just SOP in Obamaville.......

Do You Hear Us Now Barack??????



ObamaCare has taken two blows to the gut in the last week. Virginia is pushing ahead with a court case to try the Constitutionality of ObamaCare's insurance mandate and now voters is Missouri have said HELL NO by a 71 to 29 percent margin against the mandate. Read it all
here.

Is this the momentum that is building toward a total repudiation of the Obama agenda?

Let's hope so!!

Dysfunctional Liberalism



East St. Louis, long ruled by a liberal class that pushed the Progressive Agenda, is now broke. So, how do they address their fiscal problems? By cutting bloated city government, bloated school administration rolls, cutting government salaries? Of course not: they go after the police and fire forces--partly because the unions for these agencies would not compromise.

This is a typical government response to fiscal problems: cut those services most vital to the citizenary so that those citizens will scream so loud that the services will be restored after higher taxes are exacted. Read it all here.

Never let a crisis go to waste!

Will Washington's Failures Lead To Second American Revolution?



Where did that headline come from? Some far-right minuteman blog somewhere up in the mountains out west?

No, actually from staid, buttoned-up, Investors Business Daily!

The article makes a pretty good case that we may be closer to 1776 than we think:

The Internet is a large-scale version of the "Committees of Correspondence" that led to the first American Revolution — and with Washington's failings now so obvious and awful, it may lead to another.

Too many overreaching laws give the president too much discretion to make too many open-ended rules controlling too many aspects of our lives. There's no end to the harm an out-of-control president can do.

Fear and uncertainty stalk the land. Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke says America's financial future is "unusually uncertain."

Obama is building an imperium of public debt and crushing taxes, contrary to George Washington's wise farewell admonition: "cherish public credit ... use it as sparingly as possible ... avoiding likewise the accumulation of debt ... bear in mind, that towards the payment of debts there must be Revenue, that to have Revenue there must be taxes; that no taxes can be devised, which are not ... inconvenient and unpleasant ... ."

And most telling..........A wounded rampaging president can do much damage — and, like Caesar, the evil he does will live long after he leaves office, whenever that may be.

The overgrown, un-pruned power of the presidency to reward, punish and intimidate may now be so overwhelming that his re-election in 2012 is already assured — Chicago-style.

Nancy! Turn on the Pump, the Swamp is getting Deeper!



Nancy Pelosi, speaker of the House once declared that she was going to "drain the swamp of corruption", speaking to persistent ethics violations in the House.

Well this week we have seen the Charlie Rangle ethics charges go public and a different committee is working toward a similar outcome for Maxine Waters who just happened to lobby the Govt for a bank that her husband owned stock in.

Flashback 2007: Greatest Threat to Obama Campaign?



It's 2007 again: The Obama campaign is rolling full steam ahead; the Clinton campaign is on the ropes. Then potential disastor rises up in the form of Rev Jerimiah Wright, none other than Obama's spiritual advisor.

His anti-American, anti-white rhetoric threatens the Obama's carefully crafted, pleasing, innocent to whites, persona. What to do?

Read it all here.

It was the moment of greatest peril for then-Sen. Barack Obama’s political career. In the heat of the presidential campaign, videos surfaced of Obama’s pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, angrily denouncing whites, the U.S. government and America itself. Obama had once bragged of his closeness to Wright. Now the black nationalist preacher’s rhetoric was threatening to torpedo Obama’s campaign.

The crisis reached a howling pitch in mid-April, 2008, at an ABC News debate moderated by Charlie Gibson and George Stephanopoulos. Gibson asked Obama why it had taken him so long – nearly a year since Wright’s remarks became public – to dissociate himself from them. Stephanopoulos asked, “Do you think Reverend Wright loves America as much as you do?”

According to records obtained by The Daily Caller, at several points during the 2008 presidential campaign a group of liberal journalists took radical steps to protect their favored candidate. Employees of news organizations including Time, Politico, the Huffington Post, the Baltimore Sun, the Guardian, Salon and the New Republic participated in outpourings of anger over how Obama had been treated in the media, and in some cases plotted to fix the damage.

In one instance, Spencer Ackerman of the Washington Independent urged his colleagues to deflect attention from Obama’s relationship with Wright by changing the subject. Pick one of Obama’s conservative critics, Ackerman wrote, “Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares — and call them racists.”


And so, in what used to be called "the media", what we really have is nothing but a bunch of Pravda-like propogandists for the far left liberal Progressives in this country.

Veep Biden: The gift that keeps on giving......

In this story from Fox News, VP Biden tried to reverse the claim made by press secretary Robert Gibbs last week.

Democrats going up the chain all the way to Vice President Biden tried feverishly on Sunday to reverse Robert Gibbs' prediction that Republicans could seize the House in November, as GOP lawmakers claimed Washington indeed was on the verge of a power shift.

And here is the punch line from Biden: .......Biden made a confident prediction about his party's chances in November. He said voters don't yet grasp the benefits of Democrat-passed policies but that they will begin to crystallize in time for the midterm elections.

Oh but Joe, we DO realize the "benefits" and we realize what they are and will be doing to this country for a hell of a long time. And that's why we are going to cut as many of you Progressive Democrats to the ditch as possible so we can take this country back and repeal as much of this socialistic crap as we can.

Are we at the Liberal Tipping Point?



We have clearly reached the point where President Obama is no longer viewed as the "Messiah" except by himself and the most radical of his liberal base.

A great number of his liberal supporters naturally think he has not gone far enough toward enacting his agenda so they are angry.

A boatload of moderates including so-called independents and a big slug of white voters have finally realized they made a huge mistake in voting for him by thinking that "he had to govern from the center" and that his election was a way to wash away their "white guilt" for remaining racism in this country.

The polls are showing he is on the edge of a cliff as far as his support is concerned. Even the late-night comedians are taking persistant shots at him.

The next step in the polls will be a headlong rush toward buffunary, that is, being viewed as the pathetic leader that he is, rigidly locked into an ideology that hates this country and sincerely wishes to destroy it.

So, are we at that tipping point? Watch in the coming months. If he acts true to form as a despotic socialist, he will lash out more rather than pulling back in the name of self-preservation.

TEA Parties Vindicated!!



While the NAACP is busy passing worthless resolutions condemming racisim in the TEA Party Movement, the Obama Administration is making come true one of the warnings heard all around the country last year about ObamaCare.

ObamaCare will now start paying for abortions using taxpayer money! Read it all here about new high risk plans going into effect in PA. These plans are going into effect in other states also, and most likely pro-abortion folks in those states will push for taxpayer funded abortions there also!

Remember all the democratic promises and the Executive order that bought off Stupak so "this could not happen"?

Lies, lies, damnable lies!

Obama: Week in Review



As he pursues his efforts to transform America by collapsing the system, let's reveiw briefly some of those efforts this week: Five that quickly come to mind:

1. Oil Moratorium: still trying to strangle oil development in the Gulf and elsewhere.

2. Medicare & ObamaCare: used a recess appointment to slip David Berwick, a redistributionist and socialist into running these programs

3. DOJ: holding strong to the position that it is okay for black militants to engage in voter intimidation.

4. NASA: forget the moon, mars, or that fabulously expensive space station, we have to make muslims feel good about themselves.

5. Defend the broders: screw you Arizona, see you in court. The borders are as secure as we want them to be.

Let the Numbers Speak



A new gallup poll here reveals some interesting statistics.

The headline of course is Obama Job Approval Rating Down to 38% Among Independents.

Yes, that is an interesting number and not too surprising given the socialist-leftist thrust of the administration as it tries to transform American into a western-European socialist state.

The most interesting number to me is that Meanwhile, Obama maintains the support of 81% of Democrats,

Really? While Obama seeks to unravel the country and turn it into a socialist state 81% of Democrats support that move?

So here is my question: are most Democrats anti-American? And if the answer is yes, what do they consider themselves? Socialist, Communists?

What else to make of these numbers?

New Black Panthers: Off Limits or Not?



Let's pretend for a moment that a group of KKK supporters took up position outside a voting place in Jackson, Mississippi and intimidated black voters and called for whites to kill blacks and black babies. Do you think that would cause an uproar in Washington, DC?

Duh, do you even have to think about that?

Yet, the group calling themselves the New Black Panthers did just that in 2008. Yet, as reported here, the Dept of Justice under Obama's AG Eric Holder told the DOJ not to pursue the cases or any case that involves black on white victims.

It sounds like this story is getting ready to explode, just in time for the November elections. Very good timing. Keep watch.
